Nehemiah 11:22, Berean Standard Bible

Nehemiah has just repopulated Jerusalem after the exile, and this verse names the man overseeing the Levites there. Uzzi's family line is traced back through Mattaniah and Mica to Asaph, the temple singer appointed in David's time, so his ancestry is a credential for his role.
